More information on the process of the ARRT exam will be available very shortly. I am making an instructional sheet for you. This is something that will be done by you separate from the college. You must apply to the state to take the exam. There are very specific places that proctor them and Pine Tech is not one of them to my knowledge. That may change at some point.
This course is designed to prepare you for the ARRT Limited Scope exam. There are practice exams for you to take and retake. Each time you take them it may be different as there is a pool of questions that it will randomly draw from.
The ARRT Limited Scope Test is separated into 5 different modules. The main portion, is called the Main Core Module by the ARRT. Questions focus on much of what we covered in the first course. It is possible you will see questions in the practice quiz with information we have not gone over. In those cases, information will be located in the feedback part of the quiz to instruct and/or point you in the direction to reference material. We have gone over a large amount of information, but it is impossible to go over everything you may see in the ARRT exam in only one semester's time. The ARRT's philosophy is that an individual licensed in limited scope radiography should possess the same knowledge and cognitive skill in his or her specific area of radiography. So if you intend to perform chest, extremities, spines, and skulls & sinuses, you should know everything that a certified x-ray technologist knows in those areas.
For this week, it is recommended that you begin by reviewing your material from the Introduction course. Please do not fixate on the math if you can help it. It truly is a small part of the overall test. The page named "Main Core Modue" will also have summary material for you. Once you have refreshed your memory, begin taking the practice quiz.
Make preparations for the Final Exam
The final exams you will take in week 4 are designed much like the ARRT Limited Scope exam. It will have the same number of questions and will be timed just like the ARRT. Please plan for these accordingly. The exams include:
